Quality and taste of food is absolutely paramount. Cleanliness is important - Don't even THINK about recommending SARGES DELI! Decor , style, candle lights, perfumed soap in the toilet NOT A FACTOR. Must be within 6 block radius of the movie theater... give or take . No one in the group has any food allergies or food issues Everybody eats EVERYTHING, so diet is NOT an issue either. Thank you.

Outstanding, guacamole, mole poblano, sauteed soft shell crab and duck tacos. Then we went to the movie theater to see Terminator.
